| Obverse description | The obverse is laid out as a treasury obligation document with a fine guilloche border framing the entire note. The central text in bold letterpress reads 'EESTI WABARIIGI 5% WÕLAKOHUSTUS' with the serial number below, followed by a handwritten text block in Estonian and parallel multilingual side panels in German, French, and Russian. Three signature lines appear in the lower half, attributed to the Rahaminister (Finance Minister), Pääminister (Prime Minister), and Riigikassa ülem (Head of Treasury), with date 'Tähtpäev 1 mail 1920' at the top. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in a single muted tone and composed entirely of intricate guilloche lathe-work patterns covering the full surface. Two large oval guilloche vignettes, each bearing the numeral '100', are symmetrically placed at left and right center, surrounded by rosette and engine-turned geometric designs at each corner. The overall design is purely ornamental, with no inscriptions, serving as an anti-counterfeiting underprint. |
